      Yeah me too. Rob is great and I think officially today he is the bassist with the longest tenure in Metallica, but Jason was what it was when I started listening to them, and those four people will always be burned into my mind. I can only imagine how the people who were around for Cliff feel.

      Well, I'm old enough to have seen Metallica with all three bass players, and I have to say: Every single one of them completed and completes Metallica in their own way, and that's what matters.
      Cliff, Jason and Rob each are excellent bass players in their own right, deserve respect for doing their job well and thus doing their part in making Metallica what it is. And both Jason and Rob are to be commended for developing and bringing in their own respective playing styles and personalities instead of going the easy way by just trying to be ersatz Cliffs.
      _In the end, Metallica wouldn't be Metallica if any of the three lads wouldn't have been there._

      He did his Newsted solo project a few years back, but I don't think it was successful enough for him to warrant continuing it. More people should have bought the album and saw them live and he would probably be recording and touring right now instead of doing art exhibits.

      Hey, he could team up with Greg Graffin from Bad Religion when Greg makes another solo CD (Jason playing bass on songs like Backroads Of My Mind, Lincoln's Funeral Train or Millport? **rrrRRRrrr**). Although considering Graffins solo stuff release cycle, that could be well into the 2020ies. :-)

    @tims7727 Před 7 lety +2

    I think each bass player at the time was the right fit for Metallica and who's to say if Cliff hadn't passed away that he'd still be with them to this day. Cliff brought the melody and harmonies into the band that they didn't have and helped paved the way for some of their songs in the latter years. Jason is a well rounded bass player who wasn't given the opportunity within Metallica to venture out a little much like Rob was given with his project Jaco. I think Jason would still be with them had they given him the opportunity to broaden his ability. It would be interesting to see if he could come back and do an album with them. He had such a dynamic stage presence and great vocals, and with rob you have the great stage presence as he moves about a lot, but the backing vocals feel forced. All in all though this band is still pushing on and the last album really bridged the gap from Kill Em All to Death Magnetic. They sound great, they're still fast and they still seem to enjoy what they do and although at a pretty penny they still try to give the fans everything they can. They're not gonna make everyone happy, but who does nowadays. Great artwork Jason, look forward to more.
